Wreck 2401-1GB, black glass shipwreck sculpture by James Devereux

About the Item

'Wreck 2401-1GB’ is a unique glass sculpture by the British artist, James Devereux. An experienced diving instructor, the concept behind the work is best explained in the artist's own words; “An eerie glass shipwreck emerges like a spectre from the mist, casting a haunting spell upon its observers, revealing fractured reflections dancing amidst the murky depths. The aim with each of these sculptures is to evoke a sense of surreal desolation that is frozen in time. With muted hues and subtle contrasts, the scene beckons viewers to confront the secrets concealed within the shadows. I want to compel the audience to embark on a journey of chilling introspection, where the line between reality and imagination blurs, like the sunlight struggling to penetrate the darkness of an unforgiving sea. Amidst the wreckage, tints of gold and platinum draw the eye inside, tempting exploration into the depths of their imagination.” Starting in the industry at the tender age of 15 thanks to a work experience placement at Bath Aqua Glass, Devereux showed a natural talent for the craft and has been working as a glass artist ever since. Specialising in working with hot glass, he is adept at working with solid forms as well as blown pieces. Working with extensive knowledge of glass techniques Devereux will happily undertake new challenges. He has previously worked with artists and other glassmakers including Simon Moore, Louis Thompson, Liam Reeves and KT Yun. A high skill level, technique and a good eye help make Devereux one of the up and coming glass craftsmen in the glass world today. In September 2008, Devereux opened his first studio in the inspiring Wiltshire countryside, and a year later he was pulled back to London as the glass technician at the Royal College of Art, a role that opened up vast new contacts and opportunities which are still at the core of his career today. After leaving London in 2013, Devereux set up a new studio in collaboration with glass artist Katherine Huskie. Through their combined talents, Devereux and Huskie Glassworks attract some of the finest artists in the country as a place to make their work.
